  9. General travel tips for birdwatching in Singapore

    Practical advice for visitors navigating Singapore for nature activities:

    Transportation:

    • Payment: Credit cards can be used directly for MRT/bus travel; an ez-link card is not required.
    • Buses: Many buses do not announce stops; monitor your location carefully. Be cautious on double-decker bus stairs as they can be slippery.
    • Connectivity: Public Wi-Fi is widely available, reducing the need for large roaming data plans.

    Health & Comfort:

    • Weather: Be prepared for sudden afternoon thunderstorms and high heat; use sun protection to avoid heatstroke.
    • Hygiene: Public toilet paper can be coarse, and many food stalls do not provide napkins. It is recommended to carry your own tissues and wet wipes.

    Miscellaneous:

    • Payments: Carry some small change for vending machines that do not accept cards.

  11. Currency exchange and shopping in Kota Kinabalu

    Wisma Merdeka shopping mall is a recommended location for currency exchange (TWD to MYR), offering better rates than the airport. For ecological books, 'The Borneo Shop' inside Wisma Merdeka is a useful resource. For general shopping, supermarkets and bookstores are available at Suria Sabah.

  12. Initialize Zimfw in zshrc

    Zimfw is a fast Zsh framework manager. The initialization process ensures the zimfw.zsh script is downloaded (via curl or wget) and that the environment is initialized based on the .zimrc configuration file. It is recommended to set zstyle ':zim:git' aliases-prefix 'g' to prefix git aliases with 'g'.
    zstyle ':zim:git' aliases-prefix 'g'

ZIM_HOME=${ZDOTDIR:-${HOME}}/.zim
[[ -f ${ZIM_HOME}/zimfw.zsh ]] || {
  if (( ${+commands[curl]} )); then
    curl -fsSL --create-dirs -o ${ZIM_HOME}/zimfw.zsh \

  else
    mkdir -p ${ZIM_HOME} && wget -nv -O ${ZIM_HOME}/zimfw.zsh \
